Shops plan for Beverley's Lady Le Gros pub faces objections

Shops plan for Beverley's Lady Le Gros pub faces objections A plan to knock down a failed pub and build a brand new retail development has run into trouble. The application has yet to be heard by East Riding Council planning committee. But several objections have been submitted. The planned site is next to the level crossing. They include one from the highways department. But if the highways department holds sway, the future of the landmark building could again be uncertain. The developer initially said the nature of the new businesses would mean them being open at different times of the day, which would limit the impact of the extra traffic. The pub, sitting at the entrance to Beverley Rugby Union Club, has had a string of owners over the years but never been a success.
